Viscosity
It is may be the most commonly used term when we

Synthetic Lubricants
It is a type of lubricant that consists of oils
that are made from the artificially created

form to make the synthetic oils which are
suitable for specific use cases.

Oil Dispensing
It is a term referred to storing the oil in
dispensers. Oil dispensers are usually overhead
tanks. Otherwise, barrels are also used for oil
dispensing. These dispensers have a pump with
which the oil is pumped out of the dispenser to
fill another container or machine directly.

becoming thin at a certain temperature. It
basically determines the suitability of a
lubricant for a specific machinery or

the bottle of the oil that can be seen easily to
